When your gas cooker is performing as it should, life is good. But, if it starts to start to become faulty, it can really begin to frustrate you, as a lot relies on your cooker - such as being able to eat a home-cooked meal. You may be put off from using your cooker if it's beginning to become faulty, and may be tempted to just replace your entire gas cooker - but that's an expensive and time-consuming solution to your problem. Gas cooker repairs can seem daunting, and you may not want to deal with the problem yourself, but it doesn't have to be difficult.

 
In the vast majority of cases, the reason your cooker is no longer working properly is down to one simple part that can easily be replaced. However, because your cooker has many parts, it can be hard to distinguish whatt is causing your gas cooker to stop working. 
 
However, luckily for you, here at Cooker Spare Parts, we have a pretty good knowledge of how your gas cooker works and all the different parts to it. So, to help you diagnose the problem with your gas cooker, we're going to go through some of the likely problems with your gas cooker, and which part you should replace to resolve it. 
 

Gas Cooker Repairs - Here are Some Tips to Help Resolve Your Gas Cooker Issues! 

 

There's No Heat Being Produced in my Oven?!

 
Is your oven turned on but there's little to no heat being produced at all? This is a big problem, as without heat, you can't cook your meals. The part responsible for producing the heat in the oven of your gas cooker is your Oven Burner. If your burner is faulty, it may produce very little heat - or even worse - may not ignite at all! But, help is at hand! We have an excellent selection of Replacement Oven and Grill Burners that will have your gas cooker heating up without any problems, and will have you cooking your meals.

My Oven Temperature is Inconsistent?!

 
Is the oven of your gas cooker finding it hard to regulate its cooking temperature? Is it constantly over or under-heating? If you're experiencing any of these issues, then you've got a faulty thermostat. The role of your thermostat is to monitor the temperature of your oven, and shut off the voltage to your igniter once the temperature you have set is reached. This cycle is constantly repeated throughout the time your cooker is in action, to ensure the temperature of your oven is constantly regulated. If your gas oven thermostat is faulty, there's no need to worry, we have a brilliant selection of Replacement Gas Oven Thermostats that will ensure the temperature in your oven is regulated once again.

Without a spark you're going to struggle, to light your gas burner, which will mean your oven will be unable to cook your food, which is a horrible situation to find yourself in. Here at Cooker Spare Parts we want to ensure that everyone is able to enjoy a home cooked meal, so in order to get your gas cooker sparking again, we supply a range of Spark Generators & Cooker Ignition Switches, that'll allow you to light the gas and cook your meals once again!

Gas cooker ignition spark
 

Repairing a gas oven that won't light can be quite a bit trickier than fixing the same issue in an electric oven. Indeed, some tasks should only be completed by a Gas Safe (formerly CORGI registered) engineer - working on a gas appliance when you're not qualified to do so can be dangerous, and in many cases, you may actually be breaking the law by doing so.

 
Still, if your gas oven won't light, there are a few things you can try before calling in a professional gas engineer to fix the problem for you...
 

How can I fix my gas oven?

  • Check the power supply. If your gas oven won't light, remember that gas ovens still need electricity to work, so the first thing to do is make sure that your cooker is plugged in and that there's nothing that could be interrupting the power supply. Is the power cable in good condition? Is it soundly connected to the appliance itself? Is the power switched on at the wall? These may seem like stupid questions, but you'd be surprised by how often a broken cooker turns out to be merely an unplugged cooker!

  • Check the gas supply. If the electricity supply is present and correct, it may be that there's no gas coming to your oven which is causing your gas oven to not light. If your cooker has gas hobs as well as a gas oven, there's an easy way to check this: simply fire up one of your hobs. If the hobs are working fine, it means there's something wrong inside the oven itself; if the hobs won't ignite either, it's probably an issue with the gas supply. Check your gas isolation valve to make sure the supply is actually on, then check that there are kinks or obstructions in the gas line itself.

  • Buy a new ignition generator. If your gas oven still won't light after you've verified that there's nothing wrong with the electricity and gas supplies, the most likely explanation is that you need a new spark generator.  Click the button below to browse our Ignition Generators & Switches department:                                                Check Out Our Range Of Ignition Generators & Switches
Good luck with your oven-fixing efforts, and remember not to attempt any repairs yourself if you're unsure of what you're doing. When in doubt, always call a professional - it's safer and far less likely to result in further oven malfunctions!
